There's nothing wrong with a 600 mah pack; especially if you have a field charger.
Replacement 600 mah packs are $5 or $6 right now at Servo City

If you want a little more, you can get a Futaba 1000 mah pack for about $15.

If you crashed hard enough to damage your battery pack, you might seriously consider sending the receiver (with crystal) to Hobby Services to be checked for internal damage. Here's a link with info about sending things in.
